Abstract:: Biological agents and their products commonly cause foodborne illnesses. In the United States it is estimated that there are over 76 million cases of foodborne illnesses each year, resulting in an economic loss of approximately $40 billion. These high figures demonstrate the need for bioassays that display a rapid and...

Abstract:: A method is introduced and applied to analyse changed in productivity of firms harvesting in a multi-species fishery. The index-number technique decomposes firm profits into its contributions and can be used to assess economic performance by both regulators and individual firms across an industry and over time. Using an unbalanced...

Abstract:: A fluorescent dye tracer was injected into the pycnocline on the Oregon shelf at a depth of 9–10 m. It spread rapidly cross-shelf as two distinct layers, one above the other in the water column, split by interleaving dye-free water. The vertical scale of these layers, and associated density steps,...

Abstract:: Observations, from the Oregon continental shelf, describe the slumping of a coastal upwelling front in response to a reversal of winds from upwelling-to downwelling-favorable. Initially, the front outcropped in a surface mixed layer of depth 10–20 m with a pronounced cross-shelf density gradient. Following wind reversal, both the unbalanced cross-shelf...
